Crashing waves at the beach. Seagulls are little assholes but they add to the effect for me

I can’t decide, there are too many:

Mongolian throat singing with little to no instruments.

The sound of a plane cabin (I think its brown or pink noise)

The fire crackling of a fire place or furnace.

Ocean waves or waterfall or river noise.

Slowly and softly played piano.

A stew slowly cooking.

Sound of gentle brushing your head hair.

I feel like the plane cabin one is more green noise

Stew cooking one is great, check out magma too

I don’t know about most, but generally those “background sound” sort of ambient things are pretty relaxing.

goes looking on YouTube for some examples

I think that the shakuhachi, a Japanese bamboo flute, is relaxing to listen to.

Rain and thunder outside while inside in the evening.

Also, due to occupational damage, the sound of an offshore seismic source going off in the distance ever 10-12 seconds. The sound and the low frequency shake of the ship means everything is working as it should.
